Question

Cloudflare -- You are Blocked message

Greetings -- I have been receiving error messages from Cloudflare when I try to access Zoom from links I receive stating that I am being blocked.  The group sending the link has no idea why I would be blocked.  Has anyone else had this happen?

      I have been having the same issue with one group. I followed the support suggestions but it doesn't seem to help. Any ideas would be  greatly appreciated.

        I am having the same issue.  I never heard of Cloudflare until today, when I was blocked from a very important Zoom call.  It seems to be a problem with Google Chrome. My client's admin suggested that I link to Zoom via Safari, and that did the trick.  So now I guess I am going to make Safari my default browser.  I did nothing different and I did not change any settings.  The "Blocked" message just appeared out of the blue.

          It is an incompatibility issue with Chrome after all.  I changed my default browser from Chrome to Safari, and the Block stopped.  I can tell by the chat post dates that this is a new problem starting in March 2023.  I don't know why it is happening, but I do know that changing browser to Safari worked.

            So glad I found these comments! I just switched my default browser from Chrome to Safari, and that "fixed" the blocking problem for me, too!

            Hi,

            I switched my browser to Firefox, just for Zoom stuff. No more blocking!! I still use MS Edge for everything else. MS Edge doesn't seem to play well with Zoom!!! Thanks for the help!!
